Rhinoplasty A Solution For Crooked Nose
Hi,
Based on your photos, it seems that you are a good candidate for a rhinoplasty.
Fixing a crooked nose, a rotated nasal tip and an elevated nasolabial angle require a delicate approach with a conservative attitude given your facial features. Osteotomies and cartilage grafting may be required.
However, without an in-person evaluation it is hard to provide you with a solid and detailed surgical plan that will best fit your case.

Is He a Candidate for Rhinoplasty?
Hi,
If the appearance of your nose bothers you enough to ask here on RealSelf.com and take the time to post your photos, then you are likely a candidate for rhinoplasty. On frontal view your lower lateral nasal cartilages appear slightly bulbous and uneven giving a crooked appearance. From lateral view and basal view, your nose looks okay, but the angle of you lip-nose is greater than the desired 90 -100 degree male angle. With rhinoplasty your nose can be de-rotated...

Am I a Good Candidate for Rhinoplasty?
Yes, A Rhinoplasty would be able to:
Thin the upper aspects of the nasal tip.
Tuck in the columella and soften the nasolabial angle.
Reduce the cartilagenous dorsum slightly.
To aesthetically balance the face, on profile, a Chin Implant should also be considered.

Aceptable Rhinolasty Candidates
Based upon the photos you submitted, there are several areas that can be addressed including the obvious crooked nose, wide base, bulbous tip and large size of the nose itself. I would seek the services of a rhinoplasty expert in your area as there are several areas of your nose that would need to be addressed to achieve nasal harmony with your face. Good luck.

Rhinoplasty Surgery
Based on your photos, it is possible to improve the appearance of your nose. In general, straightening a crooked nose is a very difficult procedure and requires a specialist with a great deal of experience. Keep in mind that it may not be possible to get the nose 100% straight. Cartilage grafts can be used to decrease the nasolabial angle. I would recommend seeking a consultation with a board certified rhinoplasty specialist. Thank you and I hope this helps.

Rhinoplasty for straightening the nose,etc.
Rhinoplasty for straightening the nose,etc. can be done as well as decreasing the nasolabial angle. See an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon who has good long term results and not computer pictures which my son can do and who knows nothing about rhinoplasty,

Rhinoplasty
Of course, an in-person exam is required to give the best advice. However, your nose can be straightened including the columella (the strip in the middle separating the nostrils). Decreasing the nasolabial angle isn't so simple. This can be done with cartilage grafts. Also, you have a wee bit of a nasal spine that can be reduced. This will rotate the angle down.
Good luck!

You can achieve what you desire
I feel if you were my patient I would put you on the computer and show you by imaging your photos what you are desiring. Many patients when they see it graphically they can decide if it still is what they desire. Many realiz it is not for them. You must be imaged before you decide.
